Icy Roads Disrupt Traffic

“I almost died,” Morgan Sloan told WordsWorth. “I was going into a stop sign and I didn’t know there was so much ice, I skidded forward and almost got hit.”

“It was scary,” Tyler Mills said. “I was going 5mph. I started fishtailing. I pulled over to the side and made the executive decision. I came in late and stayed with Andrew Schultz.”

Ashlynne Thomson tells WordsWorth: “I was lucky. I got here at 7:30. Ten minutes later it would have been very bad. It was a matter of minutes.”

Some even experienced accidents while driving on the icy roads. Upper school Administrative Assistant Megumi Kanada was one of those people: “Right hand bumper split, front lights don’t work. [I was] rearended by a car [and] slipped a little. I was scared. I came in at 9:00. It was raining. I didn’t realize it was that icy. I was driving slow but slipped and got rearended. I’m shaken up.”
